SAFE
Select Technology BNF
®
The BNF Basic version of this airplane includes SAFE Select technology which can
offer an extra level of protection in flight. Use the following instructions to make the
SAFE Select system active and assign it to a switch. When enabled, SAFE Select
prevents the airplane from banking or pitching past predetermined limits, and
automatic self-leveling keeps the airplane flying in a straight and level attitude
when the aileron, elevator and rudder sticks are at neutral.
SAFE Select is enabled or disabled during the bind process, or it can be enabled
via Forward Programming. When the airplane is bound with SAFE Select enabled,
a switch can be assigned to toggle SAFE Select ON or OFF. AS3X® technology
remains active at all times.
